Captain Marvel (Monica Rambeau) goes after Thor, who is on a single minded quest to return Hercules, that the rest of the Avengers are there to help, only to be rebuffed by the Asgardian God. Avengers leader Captain America also appears on the page, which is expertly crafter by the incomparable team of Buscema and Palmer. The back of the page features several inked sketches that appear to be done by Buscema. Pen and ink. Art is in excellent condition.

Artists Information

'The Michelangelo of comics.' Buscema was one of the mainstays of Marvel Comics during its 1960s and 1970s heyday, best known for his run on the The Avengers and The Silver Surfer, and for over 200 stories featuring the sword-and-sorcery hero Conan the Barbarian. In addition, he penciled at least one issue of nearly every major Marvel title, including long runs on two of the company's top books, Fantastic Four and Thor.

Tom Palmer is an award winning American artist best known for extensive work for Marvel Comics, including well-remembered runs paired with pencilers Neal Adams on The Avengers and Uncanny X-Men; Gene Colan, on titles such as Doctor Strange, Daredevil and Tomb of Dracula; and John Buscema, on The Avengers. He also inked the entire run of John Byrne’s X-Men: The Hidden Years, and has influenced later generations of inkers like Klaus Janson, Josef Rubinstein and Bob McLeod.
